    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • I found the insight very enjoyable. Before arriving at Deloitte I only knew the basics about the different service lines and I left feeling very informed. Everyone on the insight was very positive and welcoming and gave the two days we spent there a great atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this experience.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • Deloitte's treatment of everyone on the insight was excellent. In particular, the hotel and dinner that was provided for us was of a very high standard and really gave the impression that Deloitte valued us being at the firm. The people running the event were very welcoming and always happy to help.

    5/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • During the insight we received a lot of guidance. We heard from people who had recently completed the summer vacation scheme and were able to find out a lot of information by asking them questions about their first hand experiences of it and what they got up to on a day to day basis. In addition I found the interview skills session very helpful.

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • On the second day there was a big focus on interview skills and we also had a female impact session. In particular we were shown an example interview and given advice on what a potential summer vacation scheme interview would be like. I found that this helped me to improve how I tackle interview questions and also how to make myself stand out from the crowd.

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • The insight was very well structured and we learned about all of Deloitte's main service lines. Both of the days included a large range of activities, so although the insight was only two days long we were able to gain a lot of information and network with many professionals during this time.

    5/5

  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?
  • The general atmosphere was very positive and upbeat. Everyone taking part was eager to learn and find out more about Deloitte. The business games we toke part in were very fun while also allowing us to learn what kind of tasks we could be doing in the different service lines.

  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?
  • Deloitte has a very inclusive culture. In particular, Deloitte are doing a lot of work for women in business. We learnt about Deloitte's future plans to increase the number of females in senior positions and to decrease the gender pay gap. They have many different strategies in place to make Deloitte a very good environment for women to be in.

    5/5

  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?
  • The insight made me realise the vast majority of different roles that are available at Deloitte. The many networking opportunities gave us the invaluable experience of hearing first hand what people currently doing the job do on a day to day basis and what they enjoy about their role and working at Deloitte.

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?
  • The insight is an unpaid programme, however Deloitte reimbursed all of our travel expenses. The accommodation provided overnight was excellent. In addition, on the first day we were given a three course dinner were we joined by Deloitte representatives and had the opportunity to ask them questions about their roles in the firm.


  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?
  • 4/5

  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?

  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?
  • 3/5

  • 15. Would you recommend this insight to a friend?
  • I would definitely recommend this insight to a friend. I found the insight allowed you to learn a lot about the company, network with many professionals, and find out about the summer vacation schemes/graduate roles that they offer. The highlight of my experience was the people who were attending the event and also those who ran the event for Deloitte. Everyone was very welcoming and positive and really made the two days enjoyable.
